Looking good! The benefits of having a plan to start with and a simple body jig are clear to see.
A thought. I assume that the windows of the two doors will not have fully opening glass, probably a sliding rear section similar to those on my Pytchley?
If so, the interior could get rather warm. When you build a new body they tend to be free of the draughts that original cars have, probably because someone hasn't drilled 23 holes in the bulkhead over the past 80 years.
I found that fitting a smokers vent in the roof of the Pytchley improved the ventilation and comfort immensely. With the rather more compact interior dimensions of the coupe, it could be worthwhile thinking of doing the same?
Enjoying this thread a great deal.
